Chris Paul has a reputation for making whatever team he plays on better than they were without him. Every team Paul joins finishes with a better record than they were without him the previous season.

The same applies to big men as well. Bigs such as Tyson Chandler, DeAndre Jordan, Clint Capela, and Deandre Ayton have played with CP3, and all of their numbers have been better with Paul around. McGee hopes some of the magic washes off to him as well, and it probably would.

However, about the Suns making it back to the Finals, that is a more tricky take, All we can do right now is wait and watch how the season progresses.
